I can't see it being anything other than Cryptopia's call, however the launch/PoW-PoS transition goes - aiui, they're in the loop but dont' feel any pressure to be specific about time periods.

Good to see the team is working hard and this project is still moving forward!

Is there a time frame available yet for launching this on Cryptopia?

Ah, one of the legion of latterday flamebaiters, a fine tradition but you're a poor exponent. You're not going to get any jollies winding up people here, you might as well sling your hook and see if you can get satisfaction from indulging your attention craving disorder in another thread.

Cheers,

An update:

There was a plan for a 20k blocks PoW period with reduced rewards to allow the community to help out with launching the chain. We did a trial run and the PoS switchover works but it is messy.

Sticking with this plan could (and probably will) cause all sorts of problems such as chain splits and delays with the Cryptopia listing. By the looks of it the current plan is to make the PoW phase as short as possible and do the PoS switchover privately in a controlled setting (a few hundred blocks with reduced rewards). So that nothing can go wrong.

This will be followed by a ~2 week period of public PoS with reduced rewards to give the team time to sort everything out with Cryptopia. This way we'll be sure to start off with a stable chain. It will also make sure that everyone will have access to their coins before full rewards kick in.

A quick update:

The first main net testrun worked out. PoS conversion happened at the designated block and MN and staking rewards were working as they should.

We're going to make another test run to check if gj's patches for the ledger transfer work as intended.

Meanwhile there are a few things that still need to be decided upon so if you feel you have something to add do join the Slack at https://heliumslack.herokuapp.com/

Yep all talk and no walk.  These folks remind me of Steve Jobs wannabes except without any engineers to execute. To the planners get over your egos and start executing on basic stuff like getting the ledger running.

Lol I just back from a looong vacation and Helium still not even launch, spreadcoin P&D scheme?

Howdy stranger

We have a new handle for Twitter that is somewhat more updated (but not much)

great PDF. maybe you can post it on your Twitter account since it's quiet over there

Other than potential GDPR issues, I couldn't find any reason why we would not be able to share the following at this point:

We set our ambitions pretty high and we needed to get involved with requirements gathering and parsing the input from real industry experts before we could move forward. There was only one chance to get this done and be the first mover before others moved in and tied up the partners interested in this space.

The piloting team is pretty big now. Integrating industry experts with our own team for a common goal will be tricky, but we are all on the same path.

We have a window to get blockchain / smart contracts process flow recommendations into a global SAP beta testing phase, based on a new white paper we have drafted. If we don't get into this cycle, we'll probably get into another. Whatever happens with this immediate opportunity, we are coming out of the discussing phase and moving in to the doing phase.

My sentiments exactly in your case.

And this, in your own words is the evidence that engenders those sentiments.

The Helium opening public ledger will effect the results of the SPR UTXO snapshot script, the latter's composition, execution and results were all made public before, during and after the exercise: https://gist.github.com/gjhiggins/692cf73c0f2b6bde406fc29f427777b0 and https://github.com/heliumchain/helium/tree/master/contrib/sprledgerxfr and extensive posts on the Helium Slack. There is no "seed wallet", as you could have trivially ascertained for yourself and, albeit a presumably novel experience for you, been in possession of some facts. Which wouldn't be a bad thing as they resolve this rather pointless and increasingly personally offensive discussion. I've launched the coin privately several times for development and testing purposes. So have others. A few trial runs have been conducted publicly - and strangely, without the fear of some complete and utter boneheaded, clueless moron launching it on his own because, well, he'd have to be close to a vegetative state not to appreciate that the rest of the Helium group and Cryptopia would just laugh and increment the protocol version.


Right now, I can't be arsed to take exception to your rashly-exposed public accusations of fraud as it must now be clear to everyone subscribing to this thread that if anyone's "a complete and utter boneheaded, clueless moron", it's you although I will credit you with passable punctuation.

Thank you, I'm fine and here.   You do everything right. It should be clear that you want to run this network no less than others. I am sure that you are using your resources rationally, and soon, the result will prove it.

Ok so this is the last week or so from #general:

https://www.heliumlabs.org/v1.0/blog/august-24th-gearing-up-for-launch

Over the last 3 days the community, with assistance from the Phore developers, have been working on getting Helium ready for the final release. A lot is going on in the #launch channel and below is a very short summary:


*We are currently conducting a main net trial run of the chain. Pow mining is enabled for 20.000 blocks with a reward of one.

*We've found some potential issues with how the snapshot disbursal is currently coded. This is being fixed and will require a restart of the chain.

*The above is the only major issue thus far. We're working towards a release candidate, making minor changes on the way.

*We've contacted Cryptopia in order to streamline everything.


Best keep an eye on Slack to make sure you don't miss anything. For people with allergies and or phobias: you can follow the Slack chat here: https://slarck.com/v2d0Ku (#general and #launch mainly)

No ETA, stay tuned!

Thanks, teela, I really appreciate this!

hi mate, asked a few question in Slack looking for your answer.
thanks in advance !

Well if you're not going to say it: who will?

Helium is currently figuring out the details of the launch and if you feel you have something to add do join us in #launch on https://onetrollbox.slack.com

Will post a tl:dr of what was said and decided in a few days.

Thanks, sorry for the outburst. I was a bit flustered over the whole effort. They're meeting sometime tomorrow in the #launch channel. Euro time probably. They're going to go over the mining pow period and possibly increase rewards. I'll keep you all posted here when that will start so you can get in on it if it is worth your time.

No worries dude , I believe post still got my merits even if deleted.
Damn good post, IMO. Keep up the great job my friend.

that response was a bit much, sorry. There's a launch meeting on Slack tonight or tomorrow. Tuesday for some is Monday for others. Join the launch channel for info. https://onetrollbox.slack.com
